Lists help preppers stay organized because being a prepper means you take the necessary steps to help your family get ready for different survival scenarios.One such step involves preparing a variety of bags and kits for your different prepping needs, such as an everyday carry kit, a car emergency kit, a bug-out bag and a get-home bag. (h/t to MiraSafety.com)
Prepping an EDC kit
As the name implies, an everyday carry kit (EDC kit) is part of your daily prep.
Your EDC kit will often include an assortment of items that can help you withstand common survival scenarios. Depending on your needs, your kit may include a weapon, a fishing kit or other items that you may find useful in scenarios specific to your location.
Below is a list of items for your EDC kit:
- Cash
- Cell phone
- An extra set of car keys
- First aid kit
- Multi-tool
- Notepad and pencil/pen
- Pocket knife/hunting knife
- Power bank/portable charger
You can also add or remove some items if you think other things are better suited for your EDC needs. (Related: Prepping tips: How to prepare a food storage starter kit.)
Prepping a car emergency kit
If you or someone in the family drives a lengthy distance or commutes to work daily, a car emergency kit can mean the difference between getting back on the road quickly and being stranded for a long time while you wait for help.
Below is a list of items for your car emergency kit:
- Antifreeze (One gallon)
- Battery-powered jump starter
- Bottled water (Two to five gallons)
- Blankets
- Car escape tool (Must include a seatbelt cutter and window breaker)
- Car fire extinguisher (ABC type)
- Durable bag to store all items
- Extra gloves, boots, wool socks and a stocking cap (For colder climates)
- First aid kit
- Flashlight and extra batteries or a flashlight that doesn’t need batteries
- Flat tire inflation canister (Non-explosive)
- Granola bars or energy bars
- Jumper cables (12-20’, get the right gauge for your vehicle)
- Multi-tool
- No-spill gas can (Two to five gallons)
- Paper towels or rags
- Pen and paper
- Road maps
- Roadside flares or glowsticks
- Roll of duct tape
- Seasonal supplies (Such as rain gear, an umbrella, ice scraper, etc.)
- Small, foldable shovel
- Small tool kit (With tools like an adjustable wrench, pliers, screwdrivers, tire pressure gauge, vise grips, etc.)
- Spare car fuses
- Spare tire and jack
- Two quarts of oil
- Washer fluid
Prepping your bug-out bag
Before you prepare a bug-out bag (BOB), you should try to improve your overall physical fitness so you can carry a heavier load. This also means you can bring more useful items when SHTF and you need to evacuate to your bug-out location.
Below is a list of important survival items for your BOB:
- Emergency whistle and signal mirror
- Fire starting tools and tinder
- First aid kit
- Flashlight and batteries
- Food (Trail mix, energy bars, and other foods that will sustain you for at least 72 hours.)
- Hunting knife or machete
- A Mylar sleeping bag or a tent
- Portable camping stove
- Toiletry kit
- Tools for hunting or fishing
- A weather-appropriate change of clothing
- A weather-appropriate hat (Baseball cap, woolen winter cap, or bandanna)
- Water, and a way to purify water if your supply runs out
Prepping your get-home bag
Think of your get-home bag (GHB) as a complimentary item for your BOB.
Your GHB includes various items that will help you get home safely during an emergency. And while it is similar to a BOB, there are some differences.
If you travel to and from work every day, you should prepare your bag as if your normal transportation back home is unavailable.
Because the main purpose of the bag is to get you home, it isn't typically built to sustain you for days. This means it should be significantly lighter than your BOB and heavier than your EDC kit.
Keeping your GHB light is necessary since you might need to walk home after SHTF while you're at work or elsewhere. If possible, you can keep your get-home bag in your car.
Below is a list of things for your get-home bag:
- A change of clothes
- Collapsible survival stove and fuel
- Extra cash
- Fire starting kit
- First aid kit
- Flashlight or headlamp
- Food and snacks
- A pair of gloves
- A hat
- Lightweight tarp and tent stakes
- Map and compass
- Metal water bottle
- Multi-tool
- Paracord
- Poncho
- Power bank
- A sturdy backpack
- Survival blanket
- Survival knife
- Walking shoes
- Waterproof coat for cold weather
- Water purification tools
- Weapon for self-defense

Compared to regular prepping, stealth prepping involves learning survival skills and becoming fully prepped while staying under the radar.This kind of prepping offers benefits, especially if you don't want nosy neighbors finding out about the six month's worth of food and other survival supplies in your stockpile. (h/t to TheSurvivalMom.com)
What is stealth prepping?
One of the biggest problems for preppers or anyone wanting to be better prepared for different emergencies is how to not attract attention and possibly become a target for looters in a post-SHTF world.
In some cases, this can result in someone turning into the common stereotype – the "paranoid prepper."
Even preppers know that it's not helpful to have an unhealthy level of paranoia. To avoid this, you can think of how you can incorporate useful hobbies and family activities that naturally lend themselves to being better prepared.
Here are some hobbies and activities that can help you and your family prepare for different emergencies:
- Bicycling (Can help improve your overall fitness.)
- Foraging (Can offer benefits, especially when finding an alternative food source after SHTF.)
- Hiking (Can help with your well-being and improve your navigational skills.)
- Orienteering (Can help improve your navigational skills.)
- Yoga (Can help improve your agility, fitness, mental focus and overall health.)
Follow the tips below to get started on your stealth preps:
Install rain barrels
If you already have a home garden, installing rain barrels can offer some benefits. If you want to have incognito rain barrels, you can install containers disguised to look like planters or rocks.
However, before you buy rain barrels, check the laws in your area. It may seem silly, but it is illegal to collect rainwater in some places.
Organic gardening
Growing organic crops in your home garden can help protect your family from store-bought fruits and vegetables that are often exposed to harmful chemicals like pesticides.
Even if your neighbors don't know that you're a prepper, they won't be suspicious if they see you digging in your garden or watering your plants. (Related: Prepping basics: How to scavenge and forage for supplies after SHTF.)
If you already have a home garden, you can secure additional ways to grow your food by creating an edible landscape on your property. Edible landscapes are next-level stealth prepping and they're the ultimate in food camouflage.
There are two ways to create an edible landscape:
- Plant flowers, bushes and trees that are edible, or
- Plant edible fruits and vegetables among the flowers, bushes and trees in your home garden to camouflage them.
Regardless of the option you choose, the result is a beautifully landscaped property that can secretly feed you after disaster strikes.
Note that creating an edible landscape takes some advanced gardening skills and a lot of work, but it’s a great way to deter people from helping themselves to your garden.
In most cases, non-preppers can't steal what they don’t notice.

Most Powerful Natural Antibiotics ( These herbal remedies are known to be very effective to strengthen immune system, health and aid the immune system to fight the effects of colds and flu )
https://i0.wp.com/www.mydailyinforme...00%2C300&ssl=1
Amber William May 25, 2024 0 Comments
Your first line of defense against any illness or infection, is your immune system.
There is no doubt that antibiotics are truly a wonder of modern medicine. Beginning with the discovery of penicillin in 1928, the rapid resolution of bacterial infections from antibiotics caused many in the medical profession to become completely enamored with the drug based approach to illness erroneously thinking that the danger to human life from infections was a thing of the past.
By 1940, antibiotics had come into widespread use causing both doctors and people to gradually forget about natural antibiotics for resolving infections and the age old remedies like cod liver oil. This change in the medical paradigm has led in recent decades to abuse of drug based antibiotics and the worrisome rise of antibiotic resistant superbugs such as the “TDR”(totally drug resistant) strain of tuberculosis and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections particularly in babies and children.
The over-reliance on drug based resolution to infections has also triggered an epidemic of children and adults with compromised gut function and autoimmune diseases of all kinds due to an imbalanced intestinal environment and the consequential scourge of leaky gut syndrome.
Beyond the problem of antibiotic resistance, however, are the long term effects of even a single round of antibiotics. The expectation in the health community that you can just fix the damage with probiotics and/or fermented foods and that gut flora magically returns to normal seems to be far from accurate.
Evidence is now emerging from multiple sources that gut flora may actually be permanently altered by drugs or, at the very least, the damage persists for several years.
The Journal Microbiology, for instance, reports that the generally acknowledged precept that use of antibiotics only causes disruption of the gut flora for a few weeks is highly flawed.
Gut flora does not quickly return to normal after a round of antibiotics.
Even a short course of antibiotics can lead to resistant bacterial populations taking up residence in the gut that persist for up to 4 years – maybe even longer.
The bottom line is that drug based antibiotics really should only be used for life threatening situations – as a last resort if you will.
For bothersome everyday infections that are not life threatening, however, nature provides some very powerful and effective alternatives. Here is the list of the best of these natural antibiotics which have succeeded in keeping my own family of five off all drug based antibiotics for colds, flu, skin and sinus infections for over 15 years (and counting!). This list of the best natural antibiotics on the planet is in no particular order although I make note of which one is my personal favorite.
Note that the natural antibiotics listed below are frequently anti-viral and anti-fungal too unlike pharmaceuticals. They also should not be confused with remedies that help with prevention and/or easing of symptoms. The benefits of elderberry syrup for this purpose come to mind here.
How to Use the Best Natural Antibiotics
on the Planet
Oregano Oil
There are over 40 different oregano species, but the most beneficial one to maximize the therapeutic antibiotic effect you need is the oil produced from wild oregano, called Origanum vulgare. Thymus capitatus,a variety that grows in Spain, is also very powerful.
Quality brands of oregano oil are made from these species. The oil is golden to dark yellow, with a strong spicy odor.
According to Dr. Mercola, the best uses for oregano oil as a natural antibiotic are the following:
- Foot or nail fungus. Put a few teaspoons of oregano oil in a small tub water and soak your feet. The oil can also be diluted (one drop of oil with a teaspoon of olive oil) and then apply directly to nails or skin.
- Parasites and infections: Dilute the oil as described above and place it under your tongue. Hold it there for a few minutes, and then rinse it out. Repeat at least four times a day.
- Sinus infections: Put a few drops of oregano oil in a pot of steaming water or neti pot. Then, slowly inhale the steam.
Cayenne Pepper
Cayenne pepper also called capsicum is a strong spice used for thousands of years for its healing power and antibiotic effects. It’s not just an anecdotal, folklore remedy, however. Science is validating its use as a natural antibiotic as well.
Cayenne pepper is particularly effective at resolving vulvovaginitis, a common infection in women. One Czech study found capsicum essential oil exerts a considerable anti-fungal and antibiotic effect on this condition. It is important to properly use a carrier oil such as olive oil and thoroughly dilute cayenne pepper essential oil, however, as capsicum is quite burning upon initial contact with the skin.
Cayenne pepper is also very effective to use as a home remedy for strep throat.
Colloidal Silver
The remarkable antibiotic nature of silver has been known for centuries. In the early 1900′s, the founder of Searle Pharmaceuticals, Alfred Searle, wrote in his book The Complete Use of Colloids in Health and Disease:Applying colloidal silver to human subjects has been done in a large number of cases with astonishingly successful results…it has the advantage of being rapidly fatal to microbes without toxic action on its host. It is quite stable. It protects rabbits from ten times the lethal dose of tetanus or diphtheria toxin.In the 1970′s, Dr. Robert O. Becker at Syracuse Medical University began to intensively research colloidal silver. He discovered that silver not only kills bacteria, but it actually killed bacteria that were resistant to all known antibiotics with no undesirable side effects.
While colloidal silver is highly antibiotic in nature, I suggest only using it for external uses such as gargling, ear infections like swimmers’ ear and skin. The reason is that ingestion of colloidal silver does damage the delicate gut microbiome by killing beneficial bacteria though not as extensively as drug based antibiotics. If you need the assistance of natural antibiotics to consume internally, choose another one on this list, not colloidal silver.The Home DoctorDo you know about the gift of nature to save the life of people from various health problems and make them feel secure by curing significant issues? How to live healthy in this world without having chronic diseases or illness or any other health issues which may hurt you physically and mentally? Due to dense population, people are trying to demolish the forest, garden areas to create shelter, so they forced to destroy the nature’s gift such as natural ingredients, secret medicinal herbs and more which are grown in wild forest, mountains and other places. When you read this review entirely, sure you will get chance to know about secrets medicinal ingredients, herbs and more used by our ancestor to get back the lost health without losing your life. Claude Davis was highlighted all the stuff in the form of the e-bookThe Home Doctorfilled with a list of natural ingredients and remedies that you can quickly grow in the backyarGrapefruit Seed Extract (GSE)
Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) has been reported to be a highly effective, natural antibiotic in combating a variety of common infectious agents. In one study, drops of concentrated grapefruit-seed extract were tested for antibacterial properties against a number of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. The researchers concluded that GSE was comparable to “proven topical antibacterials. Although the GSE appeared to have a somewhat greater inhibitory effect on gram-positive organisms than on gram-negative organisms, its comparative effectiveness against a wide range of bacterial biotypes is significant.”
Used full strength to combat warts, properly diluted GSE has a variety of uses to combat pathogens in your home environment. The only caveat is that commercial preparations of GSE have a chemical in them called diphenol hydroxybenzene that is of questionable safety and other chemicals like triclosan and cancer causing parabens that are definitely to be avoided.
Therefore, if you intend to use GSE especially internally, it is best to make it yourself by grinding the grapefruit seeds and the juiceless pulp and then mixing with pharmaceutical grade glycerin. I recommend this brand.
Garlic
Of all the natural antibiotics, garlic is my personal favorite and my family’s go-to for internal use. The reason is that it kills the pathogens, not just bacteria but also fungus and viruses too without harming beneficial gut flora.
- Garlic packs a punch with phytochemicals and healing sulfur components. These sulfur compounds even chelate toxic heavy metals (like lead & cadmium), binding with them for excretion out of the body.
- It has antibacterial, anti-fungal, and even anti-viral qualities.
- It promotes the growth of healthy intestinal microflora by acting as a prebiotic (food for probiotics).
- Garlic helps keep fats from oxidizing.
- Garlic acts as a strong antioxidant and guards against DNA damage.
- It protects against radiation & sunlight damage.
- Garlic fights worms and parasites.
- It benefits digestion, which is good for the whole body.
- It contains many nutrients such as vitamins (C, B1, B2, B3), minerals (calcium, folate, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, zinc, and phytochemicals (Allicin, beta-carotene, beta-sitosterol, caffeic acid, chlorogenic acid, diallyl-disulfide, ferulic acid, geraniol, kaempferol, linalool, oleanolic acid, p-coumaric acid, phloroglucinol, phytic acid, quercetin, rutin, s-allyl-cysteine, saponin, sinapic acid, & stigmasterol).
The phytochemical allicin in garlic is so powerful that it is one of the best natural antibiotics effective against MRSA. This article on MRSA natural remedies describes how to use it appropriately for this purpose.
Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride MD suggests consuming a whole head of garlic a day when using for natural antibiotic purposes. She also outlines how to make garlic infused olive oil as a remedy for ear and other external infections.
- 1 crushed clove of garlic
- 1 – 2 tablespoons cold pressed extra virgin olive oil
Place the crushed garlic in the oil and let sit for 30 minutes, then strain. The oil can be warmed slightly by placing it in a cup and setting the cup in warm water (don’t overheat or this will destroy beneficial properties). Use a few drops of this oil hourly in the ears to treat an ear infection. Garlic oil is a safe remedy for children and can also be used daily (just a couple of drops) to soften ear wax buildup.
If you are concerned about the heat and odor potential on breath and sweat from consuming raw garlic cloves, you can use this pickled garlic recipe to substitute fermented garlic cloves instead. Do not use commercial pickled garlic as it has no therapeutic value.
Ginger
Have you ever wondered why pickled, raw ginger is nearly always served with sushi? This is likely because of historical folklore concerning ginger’s natural antibiotic effects which help prevent food poisoning.
Studies have shown that fresh ginger really does have an antibiotic effect against food borne pathogens such as salmonella, listeria and campylobacter. Fresh ginger also increases stomach acid production and helps calm indigestion when a meal just doesn’t agree with you.
So, if you are going to eat something that has the potential for food borne illness such as sushi or raw oysters, always best to eat some fresh ginger (raw and pickled is most potent) too in order to make use of its natural antibiotic properties.
The Master Tonic, a powerful anti-viral and natural antibiotic, includes plenty of fresh ginger as well as fresh cayenne pepper and garlic. This tonic is a highly effective concoction to make and take with you when traveling overseas in order to have a handy formula available that packs the punch of several natural antibiotics synergistically combined and fermented for maximum potency.
Properly made ginger tea is helpful for digestive ailments such as the inability to absorb food properly and an overabundance of pathogens in the gut. Malabsorption of food can cause nutritional deficiencies that lead to disease over time. “Everything good is found in ginger” declares an ancient Indian proverb.
Olive Leaf Extract
Most people are aware of the health benefits of pure, 100% extra virgin olive oil. However, many in the health community are still in the dark about the antibiotic effects of olive leaf extract coming from the very same trees!
According to Dr. Ronald Hoffman MD, founder and Medical Director of the Hoffman Center in New York City, olive leaf extract as a healing modality was first realized in the 1800’s for malaria. Olive leaf extract may be best known for it’s ability to reduce fever even due to severe illness.
Early in the last century, oleuropein was isolated from olive leaf extract as this phytochemical was thought to give the olive tree its resistance to disease. Researchers from the Netherlands then learned that elenolic acid, a component of oleuropein, acted as a broad spectrum natural antibiotic, which safely and strongly inhibits the growth of not only bacteria, but also viruses and fungi.
Dr. Hoffman MD’s suggestion for use of olive leaf extract for long standing infections or candida is two 500 mg capsules (20% oleuropein) three to four times per day, preferably with meals.
Turmeric
Turmeric is a spice widely used in traditional Indian cooking that has been used holistically for centuries.
Dr. Kelly Brogan MD uses turmeric holistically in her psychiatry practice. She writes,This wonder-spice is a mainstay of my anti-inflammatory work with patients in my practice where I use liposomal preparations of curcumin, the natural phenols responsible for turmeric’s yellow color, when I suspect their symptoms stem from a challenged immune system.In research, the curcumin in turmeric was shown to be effective against Helicobacter pylori common in gastroduodenal ulcersregardless of the genetic makeup of the strain. The administration of curcumin also resolved any gastric damage caused by the infection. Turmeric is also highly effective in providing allergy relief from the symptoms of allergic rhinitis or hay fever.
If you wish to use turmeric as a natural antibiotic, Dr. Weil suggests to look for extracts in dosages of 400 to 600 mg, and take three times daily or as directed.
Echinacea
Echinacea is an herb widely used to fight infections and has been the subject of wide scientific research. Even WebMD is positive about it concluding that:Echinacea is widely used to fight infections, especially the common cold and other upper respiratory infections. Echinacea is also used against many other infections including the flu, urinary tract infections, vaginal yeast infections, genital herpes, bloodstream infections (septicemia), gum disease, tonsillitis, streptococcus infections, syphilis, typhoid, malaria, and diphtheria.German scientists have studied echinacea using double-blind, placebo-controlled studies, the gold standard for scientific research on drugs. One of these showed that echinacea users experienced less frequent and less severe virus infections by one-third to one-half with no toxic effects compared to the group that took a placebo.
According to Dr. Sears MD, echinacea studies on adults suggest 300 mg three time a day for a total of 900 mg a day as a recommended regimen. For children, half the adult dose for ages 6-13, and one-quarter the adult dose for those under age six.
Manuka Honey
What would this list of natural antibiotics be without raw honey which has been used as an infection fighter since ancient times? Of all the honey on the planet, manuka honey from New Zealand that is UMF certified is the best when it comes to resolving infections. Just be sure it has never been heated !
I began using manuka honey regularly after my first child was born to resolve a breastfeeding related infection. It worked so well I was able to avoid using antibiotics. I have also used it to very quickly heal strep throat without antibiotics for my tween daughter.
According to Dr. Mercola, clinical trials have found that Manuka honey is effective against more than 250 strains of bacteria, including:
- MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)
- MSSA (methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus)
- VRE (vancomycin-resistant enterococci)
- Helicobacter Pylori (which can cause stomach ulcers)
In 2007, the FDA even approved Manuka honey based wound dressings.
The great thing about Manuka honey is that it is food. I’ve personally found it most effective for skin based infections (just slather on as needed), but the research indicates an internal infection fighting benefit as well even reducing the cavity causing bacteria responsible for dental plaque.
Pau d’Arco
Overuse of drug based antibiotics frequently leads to an overgrowth in the gut of a large family of yeasts or fungus known as Candida.
Pau d’arco is an herb that is highly anti-Candida and significantly reduces the resultant sugar cravings that come with it. Repressing Candida and ingesting plenty of probiotics in the form of fermented foods and/or supplements will over time allow beneficial gut microbes to regain control of the gut environment.
While Pau d’arco has been used as a medicine for centuries as one of the best natural antibiotics to counteract fungal overgrowth, science is also validating these anecdotal observations. The Brazilian Journal of Biology found in 2010 found that Tabebuia avellanedae, one tree species that is the source of the Pau d’arco herb, does indeed exert an inhibitory effect on yeasts.
The form Pau d’arco is most often used is as an herbal tea, which I must admit, is an acquired taste! Even after drinking it as needed for the past 2 decades, I still don’t like it much! The good news is that the taste isn’t so terrible that you can’t drink a cup or two for a few days to a week or more. This will help you get back into the routine of healthy eating with sweets kept in moderation if Candida has gotten out of control during off the wagon eating while on vacation or due to a round of antibiotics.
Which of the natural antibiotics on this list are your favorites? What do you use them for and when? Please note that if you absolutely have to use pharmaceuticals due to a very serious infection, repairing the gut after antibiotics is a very important process that should be undertaken immediately.The Lost Book of Remedies is the revolutionary e-book which is suitable for one of the tools in survival kit because the creator of this program was mentioned lots of benefits about natural medicinal herbs and ingredients to make you feel safe, secure by protecting the health of yourself and dependents in any crisis.
